Conductivity, Temperature and Depth (CTD) data from the SIPEX II voyage of the Aurora Australis
 Entry ID: SIPEX_II_CTD

[ Update this Record ]

Summary
Abstract: Multiple CTD (conductivity, temperature, depth) casts were deployed during the SIPEX II AAD Marine Science voyage in September-November 2012. The system uses a descending rosette capable of holding up to 24 CTD bottles. During this voyage the CTD rosette also housed two krill traps (using controllable lights) and two GoPro cameras contained in pressurised, waterproof containers that were used to ... View entire text

The workaround was to fire the bottle directly after a message was received form the camera, then confirm that it had fired before starting to write down the details of the fire on the CTD log sheet.
